ANDREA OLIVATHE KING OF THE COLONY

Super proud! The success is based on the fact that behind the brand there are people working as passionately as us in the front! It’s great to see how the brand has grown over the years! Finally we don’t have to explain what ANTS is to people anymore as everyone in the scene knows!

Is there a greater stage and audience to play at in the world?

It’s definitely one of the greatest! The sound, production, hospitality and most importantly, the crowd...are all magnificent!!

Biggest tune of the summer?

There have been a lot of big tunes this summer, but don’t forget the classics! They love the classics in Ibiza - they take you back in time!

Who are the superstar guest DJs who totally ‘get’ playing at ANTS?

As much as we the DJs can be considered superstars, the real superstars of the party are the crowd! Without their energy we would be poor lonely superstars up there lol!

What has been the most spine tingling moment for you at ANTS?

The first visit of my parents to Ibiza! They saw me performing for the first time at ANTS and it meant everything to me to see how proud they were! That moment will stay with me forever!

A quick message to your Ushuaïa Ibiza fans...

Keep spreading the love guys! Music is the antswer!

Do you you still get nervous before you step onto the most famous stage in the club music world?

Of course I feel very nervous sometimes, but that all disappears when I play my first song of the night. Then I’m just extremely excited to be back at a venue I love.

What is the latest on the new studio album you have promised us this year?

My album is coming out very soon and I’m so proud of it. My recently released track together with Anne-Marie ‘Don’t Leave Me Alone’ is on it. Unfortunately I can’t spoil anything else, but I can’t wait to share the whole album with you guys...

Who are some of the new blood DJs coming through that you are excited about right now?

There are so many talented people out there. For my shows at Ushuaïa this year I

brought HUGEL and LOVRA with me. I absolutely love them and they are super talented.

Do you have super fans who travel a long way to see you in Ibiza, any examples?

Oh for sure! I have a lot of dedicated fans who travel to see me play somewhere. An example is that at the beginning of this year during my show in Paris I met the guy behind ‘Nation Guetta Worldwide’. He traveled to Paris for my show. I have the best fans!

A quick message to your Ushuaïa Ibiza fans...

Thank you all so much for partying with me. You really make Mondays BIG and hope to see you soon at one of the shows!
